The new ebpf code uses e.g. the laal instruction which is part of the

There are a lot of embedded systems that run most or all of their
functionality in init, running as root:root. For these systems,
supporting multiple users is not necessary.This patch adds a new symbol, CONFIG_MULTIUSER, that makes support for
non-root users, non-root groups, and capabilities optional. It is enabled
under CONFIG_EXPERT menu.When this symbol is not defined, UID and GID are zero in any possible case
and processes always have all capabilities.The following syscalls are compiled out: setuid, setregid, setgid,
setreuid, setresuid, getresuid, setresgid, getresgid, setgroups,
getgroups, setfsuid, setfsgid, capget, capset.Also, groups.c is compiled out completely.
In kernel/capability.c, capable function was moved in order to avoid
adding two ifdef blocks.This change saves about 25 KB on a defconfig build. The most minimal
kernels have total text sizes in the high hundreds of kB rather than
low MB. (The 25k goes down a bit with allnoconfig, but not that much.The kernel was booted in Qemu. All the common functionalities work.
Adding users/groups is not possible, failing with -ENOSYS.Bloat-o-meter output:

When an architecture fully supports randomizing the ELF load location,
a per-arch mmap_rnd() function is used to find a randomized mmap base.
In preparation for randomizing the location of ET_DYN binaries
separately from mmap, this renames and exports these functions as
arch_mmap_rnd(). Additionally introduces CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_ELF_RANDOMIZE
for describing this feature on architectures that support it
(which is a superset of ARCH_BINFMT_ELF_RANDOMIZE_PIE, since s390
already supports a separated ET_DYN ASLR from mmap ASLR without the
ARCH_BINFMT_ELF_RANDOMIZE_PIE logic).Signed-off-by: Kees Cook

Remove the 31 bit support in order to reduce maintenance cost and
effectively remove dead code. Since a couple of years there is no
distribution left that comes with a 31 bit kernel.The 31 bit kernel also has been broken since more than a year before
anybody noticed. In addition I added a removal warning to the kernel
shown at ipl for 5 minutes: a960062e5826 ("s390: add 31 bit warning
message") which let everybody know about the plan to remove 31 bit
code. We didn't get any response.Given that the last 31 bit only machine was introduced in 1999 let's
remove the code.

The multi-threading facility is introduced with the z13 processor family.
This patch adds code to detect the multi-threading facility. With the
facility enabled each core will surface multiple hardware threads to the
system. Each hardware threads looks like a normal CPU to the operating
system with all its registers and properties.The SCLP interface reports the SMT topology indirectly via the maximum
thread id. Each reported CPU in the result of a read-scp-information
is a core representing a number of hardware threads.To reflect the reduced CPU capacity if two hardware threads run on a
single core the MT utilization counter set is used to normalize the
raw cputime obtained by the CPU timer deltas. This scaled cputime is
reported via the taskstats interface. The normal /proc/stat numbers
are based on the raw cputime and are not affected by the normalization.Signed-off-by: Martin Schwidefsky

- To improve boot time with CONFIG_DEBIG_PAGEALLOC, support for the

This code is based on a patch from Vojtech Pavlik.
http://marc.info/?l=linux-s390&m=140438885114413&w=2The actual implementation now differs significantly:
Instead of adding a second function "ftrace_regs_caller" which would be nearly
identical to the existing ftrace_caller function, the current ftrace_caller
function is now an alias to ftrace_regs_caller and always passes the needed
pt_regs structure and function_trace_op parameters unconditionally.Besides that also use asm offsets to correctly allocate and access the new
struct pt_regs on the stack.While at it we can make use of new instruction to get rid of some indirect
loads if compiled for new machines.The passed struct pt_regs can be changed by the called function and it's new
contents will replace the current contents.Note: to change the return address the embedded psw member of the pt_regs
structure must be changed. The psw member is right now incomplete, since
the mask part is missing. For all current use cases this should be sufficent.
Providing and restoring a sane mask would mean we need to add an epsw/lpswe
pair to the mcount code. Only these two instruction would cost us ~120 cycles
which currently seems not necessary.Cc: Vojtech Pavlik

The S390 architecture advertises support for HAVE_DMA_ATTRS when PCI is

dma_alloc_attrs() and dma_free_attrs() functions to be provided when an
architecture supports DMA attributes.Rename dma_alloc_coherent() and dma_free_coherent() to dma_alloc_attrs()
and dma_free_attrs() since they are functionally equivalent and alias
the former to the latter for compatibility.For consistency with other architectures, also reuse the existing symbol
HAVE_DMA_ATTRS defined in arch/Kconfig instead of providing a duplicate.
Select it when PCI is enabled.While at it, drop a redundant 'default n' from the PCI Kconfig symbol.

The non-scalar ktime_t implementation is basically a timespec
which has to be changed to support dates past 2038 on 32bit
systems.This patch removes the non-scalar ktime_t implementation, forcing
the scalar s64 nanosecond version on all architectures.This may have additional performance overhead on some 32bit
systems when converting between ktime_t and timespec structures,
however the majority of 32bit systems (arm and i386) were already
using scalar ktime_t, so no performance regressions will be seen
on those platforms.On affected platforms, I'm open to finding optimizations, including
avoiding converting to timespecs where possible.[ tglx: We can now cleanup the ktime_t.tv64 mess, but thats a

If the renamed symbol is defined lib/iomap.c implements ioport_map and
ioport_unmap and currently (nearly) all platforms define the port
accessor functions outb/inb and friend unconditionally. So
HAS_IOPORT_MAP is the better name for this.Consequently NO_IOPORT is renamed to NO_IOPORT_MAP.
The motivation for this change is to reintroduce a symbol HAS_IOPORT
that signals if outb/int et al are available. I will address that at
least one merge window later though to keep surprises to a minimum and

Pull s390 updates from Martin Schwidefsky:
"There are two memory management related changes, the CMMA support for
KVM to avoid swap-in of freed pages and the split page table lock for
the PMD level. These two come with common code changes in mm/.A fix for the long standing theoretical TLB flush problem, this one
comes with a common code change in kernel/sched/.Another set of changes is Heikos uaccess work, included is the initial
set of patches with more to come.And fixes and cleanups as usual"

Currently AUDITSYSCALL has a long list of architecture depencency:
depends on AUDIT && (X86 || PARISC || PPC || S390 || IA64 || UML ||
SPARC64 || SUPERH || (ARM && AEABI && !OABI_COMPAT) || ALPHA)
The purpose of this patch is to replace it with HAVE_ARCH_AUDITSYSCALL
for simplicity.Signed-off-by: AKASHI Takahiro

If an architecture has futex_atomic_cmpxchg_inatomic() implemented and there
is no runtime check necessary, allow to skip the test within futex_init().This allows to get rid of some code which would always give the same result,
and also allows the compiler to optimize a couple of if statements away.Signed-off-by: Heiko Carstens
